Gas Valve

BellaireBoy

Does anyone know where i can get the allen head screw that goes in the gas valve test ports…comes out with a 3/32" allen wrench….need a couple replacements….gas valve is a White Rodgers 36J24-205… Thanks in advance…

Doesn't a 1/8" pipe thread fit in there, such as what would be used for a manometer hose barb connection?

Nah, these are li'l Allen setscrews ground to a point. The secret is that you don't remove them, just crack them a turn or so. That'll be plenty to check pressures (but not purge air, not that I would ever do that…)
I'm afraid that the only replacement source that I know of is a donor valve. I used to keep a few of those, and the ⅛" plugs, on hand from when I condemned a valve.

If you figure out what size they are you can probably order them from mcmaster-carr.

i agree on the donor valve…but need someone who has one…and yes they are tapered at the bottom so they can seal.

thx.

You even get your choice of tip angle.
